Even with Orlando Scandrick, Morris Claiborne and Brandon Carr, the Dallas Cowboys could always use some more depth at cornerback, especially with Carson Wentz, Eli Manning and Kirk Cousins playing in the NFC East.

Alabama’s Marlon Humphrey may actually be good enough to start over some of these guys. He’s a physical corner that excels in man coverage and also isn’t afraid to make some big hits in the open field.

Humphrey could be a great addition as an outside cornerback for the Cowboys, and he has the upside to be a long-term starter at the position.
